We really loved our stay in Kenmore Lodge, the house is well equipped and comfortable, and makes a great base for exploring the area. The Ferryman's Inn and Courtyard Bar are both within 25 mins walk, are dog friendly, and serve good food.There are amazing walks from the door, such as Kenmore Hill and Black Rock viewpoint, but other beauty spots like Glencoe are less than 2 hours away.The views over Loch Tay and into the woodland surrounding the house were beautiful, and the house having bedrooms below and living space on the top floor really make the most of this.The only slight downside for us was that the wooden floor was a bit slippy for both our dogs and could present an issue for a dog with joint problems etc., however, keeping them calm helped this. We would absolutely come back to Kenmore Lodge in future.

A wonderful spacious lodge. Very well equipped and spotlessly clean. The open plan dining/kitchen/ living area feels huge and has quality cooking facilities. Bedrooms & bathroom facilities equally impressive with one en-suite, one bathroom with shower & one upstairs toilet. Short walk into Kenmore but suitable for most. Certainly one of the best places we’ve rented & would return without question. Excellent.
